The Ubuntu OpenStack team at Canonical is pleased to announce the general availability of OpenStack Rocky on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS via the Ubuntu Cloud Archive. Details of the Rocky release can be found at: https://www.openstack.org/software/rocky

To get access to the Ubuntu Rocky packages:

Ubuntu 18.04 LTS -----------------------

You can enable the Ubuntu Cloud Archive pocket for OpenStack Rocky on Ubuntu 18.04 installations by running the following commands:

Python 3 support --------------------- Python 3 packages are now available for all of the above packages except swift. All of these packages have successfully been unit tested with at least Python 3.6. Function testing is ongoing and fixes will continue to be backported to Rocky.

Python 3 enablement -------------------------- In Rocky, Python 2 packages will still be installed by default for all packages except gnocchi and octavia, which are Python 3 by default. In a future release, we will switch all packages to Python 3 by default.

[1] The naming convention of python packages is generally python-<service> and python3-<service>. For horizon, however, the packages are named python-django-horizon and python3-django-horizon.

[2] The following packages are run under apache2 and require installation of libapache2-mod-wsgi-py3 to enable Python 3 support: aodh-api, cinder-api, barbican-api, keystone, nova-placement-api, openstack-dashboard, panko-api, sahara-api

Other notable changes ---------------------------- sahara-api: sahara API now runs under apache2 with mod_wsgi

Branch Package Builds ----------------------------- If you would like to try out the latest updates to branches, we deliver continuously integrated packages on each upstream commit via the following PPA’s:

Reporting bugs ------------------- If you have any issues please report bugs using the 'ubuntu-bug' tool to ensure that bugs get logged in the right place in Launchpad:

sudo ubuntu-bug nova-conductor
